1986 questions.
Trader replied to trouble's topic in Venture and Venture Royale Tech Talk ('83 - '93)
Consider this is just a "free sample" of what you get....so pay the $12 and get on board! Then everyone can start ignoring you! NOT!! This place is worth a whole lot more just in technical advice you can get from the knowledgeable members. And even us wrenching dummies contribute....even if it is just in the jokes and humor forum. -

Trader replied to venture83_98's topic in Venture and Venture Royale Tech Talk ('83 - '93)
I think its a pollution control thing. I've read some say remove it...others say keep it. From what I've read....it's like it's personal chioice and doesn't make any real differnce. Hopefully someone who knows what they are talking about will chime in! -
Sorry for your loss Tom. It's never easy...no matter what the circumstances.

Some bar jokes - how many can we manage ?
Trader replied to greg_in_london's topic in Jokes and Humor
A piece of string goes into a bar but the bartender says "Sorry, we don't serve string" So the string goes outside, gets all tangled up and ruffles up his hair and goes back into the bar. The bartender says "Aren't you the piece of string I just kicked out"? The string says "No, I'm afraid not!" for those who might not get it...."No, I'm a frayed knot!" That better? -
OF COURSE we expect it to be an original that is circulating!!!! I would be dissappointed if this group of people did anything illegal like that. When I said 'copy" what I meant was if it was a different video from that one we have all been waiting for.
-
Wasn't there a list posted of those wanting to get that video on the board? Or is this a copy other than what that list related to perhaps.

Hi Folks, Partshark say we will not get stuck with the extra charges UPS is so famous for when sending to Canada. Any Ontario folk have any experience with them? Was it as stated?

Carbs,,, here we go!
Trader replied to Trader's topic in Venture and Venture Royale Tech Talk ('83 - '93)
Relax Carl!!!! its the 83 I'm talking about. As you know, It's in a million pieces in the garage and I play with it once in awhile. I don't expect IT to be on the road this year. I want to fix it good! Including paint etc. The 88 is on the road but still not right. After all the work we did with them last fall I figured the carbs need a full off the bike rebuild. I bought a set of carbs for the 88 and I'll rebuild them so I just have to do a switch and sync and be back on the road with it ASAP. Money is always an issue so I'll probably do the carbs for the 88 first and then do the 83. I think I need to do a clutch on the 88 as well:crying: -
In another thread (do a search for "4 brush starter") Dingy suggested there would be very little room to do the ground mod on a 4 brush....from what I've read everybody says it is not needed. just my uneducated
-
Well, I got the carb rack off the 83 tonight. Those linkages are something else! I have no idea how I'm gonna get them back together!!! Just taking them off was a real test of my "christian vocabulary"!!!!!!!:bang head: Any way....now all I need is the parts So...for a proper job, could someone tell me what parts I need to order? I have new diaphrams already Also....the fuel line looks like a red colour braded hose. is that the original one? Thinking I might just as well change while I'm at it if it is. Also going to do the head cover gaskets. Although it looks like it has been leaking from the bolts more so than the covers themselves. Lots of other jobs...not likely going to see the road this summer.

A letter from a Gutsy Cape Bretoner –Gotta love it!!! “Dear Revenue Canada, Enclosed and/or attached, you will find my 2010 tax return showing that I owe $3,407.00 in taxes. Please note the attached article from the Toronto Globe and Mail; dated 12 November, wherein you will see the Canadian Department of National Defense is paying $171.50 per hammer and Fisheries and Oceans Canada has paid $600.00 per toilet seat for its icebreakers. As payment, I am enclosing four (4) toilet seats (valued @ $2,400) and six (6) hammers valued @ $1,029), which I secured at Canadian Tire, bringing my total remittance to $3,429.00. Please apply the overpayment of $22.00 to next year's tax bill or a roll of toilet paper. It has been a pleasure to pay my tax bill this year, and I look forward to paying it again next year.
